Being the ACC champion means absolutely nothing.

Statistically, the ACC champion is the worst performing champion in BCS bowls. It's significantly worse than the other 5 BCS conferences, the MWC, and the WAC, and the CUSA, MAC, and Sunbelt at least have no data as opposed to the 2-9 record of the ACC.
I'm a Miami fan, and I agree with this man.

But passing 90% of the time appeals to younger fans more than running 90% would. So I'm sure Hawaii fans loved that offense because it appeals to what they want passing. Georgia Tech fans may not like the 90% running offense because, like the earlier poster said, "it's stale".

Copying as if a trend sweeping the NCAA? No

Copying, as if other schools struggling to make headway taking it up? Yeah, it could happen.

But its more important someone comes up w/a defense to sweep the nation. I think D has gotten less innovative.

MUSCHAMP begs to differ with you... In the NFL maybe, a majority of them run the same 3-4... To the casual fan the NCAA defenses may same bland and dry but tons of teams have different wrinkles and packages all based on personnel... No defense is going to be as innovative as offense because defense is the reactionary side of the ball...

Nickel base is a creative defense? Its almost a no-brainer in the pass happy Big12...

As far as the topic goes... I think it takes a special group of coaches to run that system effectively at a high level. What do I know though... haha

The standard option never should have gone away. The old claim was that you couldn't win with it in the new age of college football.

Well...it seems to be winning just fine.

To answer your question, Ga. Tech does not have top athletes. They have good athletes and are very well coached for the system their coaching staff runs.

Ga. Tech will never win a championship running that offense.
Oklahoma, Georgia, Nebraska, Auburn?

All won national championships running the triple option.

Texas and Florida won championships recently running the spread option, which isn't too far off from Paul Johnson's spread wing T option.

Thanks for the honest answer. That's why I think many coaches and AD's will hesitate to implement this scheme and hire coaches who do. Because of backlash from young fans. I wonder what students at Georgia Tech think of the offense.
As a GT student I find the offense very boring and stale. All we ever do is rack up yards and score touchdowns. its also disappointing that we only have 9 passes over 50+ yards this season. I hope we get rid of PJ after this season since we will never be able to compete in big-time college football using this high school offense.

In fact not only will we not be able to recruit blue-chip pro-style quarterbacks and wide receivers, we also wont be able to recruit blue-chip punters and kickers because we rarely kick or punt. We also wont be able to recruit blue-chip running backs, offensive linemen, defensive backs, and tight ends either because they would practice for a system that is not utilized by NFL teams.

PJ will drive burden our program with trophies and accolades for years to come with his high school offense if we dont get rid of him soon.
